The new airline EC Plus Airline wants to take off in Ecuador and has requested permission to operate flights regular household in the country.
A new project of ecuadorian airline has begun to take shape and is taking its first steps to start operations. Within this framework and within the long process of creating an airline and above all, get it off the ground, the company ECQUATOR AIRLINE S.A with its commercial name EC Plus Airline has taken its first step requesting before the National Civil Aviation Council – CNAC, through your legal representative, the operating permit for domestic routes, which was already authorized:
On the approved application, EC Plus Airlines requests that it be granted the operating permit for the provision of the air transport service, public, domestic, regular, passenger, combined cargo and mail throughout the Ecuadorian continental territory, with the exception of the Insular Region of Galapagos.
The airline within the first routes and frequencies requested are the following:
- Manta – Quito – Blanket with twelve weekly frequencies.
- Quito – Guayaquil – Quito with fourteen weekly frequencies.
- Quito – Cuenca – Quito with twelve weekly frequencies.
The type and class of aircraft that the airline intends to operate in Ecuador will be Boeing manufacturer Boeing 737-700NG model aircraft, which will be acquired under the purchase system.
Finally, EC Plus Airline's main operations and maintenance center will be located at the Eloy Alfaro International Airport from the city of Manta.
Too, the airline requested to operate the following cross-border routes, in which it would enter to compete directly with Tame EP:
On the border integration route between Ecuador – Colombia requests to fly between:
- Manta – Esmeraldas – Cali – Esmeraldas – Blanket with two weekly frequencies.
- Quito – Esmeraldas – Cali – Esmeraldas – Quito with two weekly frequencies.
The rest of the terms such as the fleet to operate remain the same as the domestic operation request.
The project
Despite the fact that this is the first public information on the intentions of this new airline, there are some very interesting points in this application. One of them is that it will be the first Ecuadorian airline to be based in the city of Manta (at least i remember), from where it will start its operations to make routes like Manta – Quito – Guayaquil – Quito – Cuenca – Quito – Manta, what will be without a doubt, an operation different from what we are used to.
Too, The Boeing 737-700NG model would be the first airline to operate domestic flights in Ecuador, which have a capacity of between 140 a 149 passengers according to configuration, a basic autonomy of 3.900 nautical miles and powered by two CFM 56-7B26 engines.
We wish the greatest success for this new project, which we hope will get off the ground so that the history of projects like South American Aviation, LAC O Ecuador Airlines AEROEC to name a few of the more recent years.

It is also because from ESM more weight is removed and more FUEL is carried
It's right.
If the Civil Aviation Authority has already authorized the operations, jobs will be opened in the cabin crew area?? By when do you know please ?? And where will they operate from?? Apparently from Manta as Base of Operations?
Hi Patricia, the authority gave them the operating permit, but they must first obtain their AOC or Air Operator Certificate to be able to start flights and this takes time. About your other questions, They will probably hire staff at some point..
Nicolás, why did Tame stop operating with Embraer planes???
I just posted an interview here on the blog, there is talk about it.
good morning can you help me with the address of this company and telephone numbers please
There is no such information yet.
And there are no flights to Tulcan, a new airport being destroyed
Tulcán was never remodeled, It is still the same terminal from the 70s.
These happy border integrations are only a curtain to be able to transfer the (market) faster and without so many controls, (Ecuador-Colombia) just the most forgotten cities and with less control.?? To another dog with that bone..
There will be work for cabin crew
Hi I would like to know what link to apply for jobs in New York
No openings yet.
CAP….
How is it possible that you have a capital of only 16.000 USD?
It is only a legal issue necessary to form the company, nothing more.
It's good news, ECUADOR deserves to have a flag airline that represents us, beyond extra airlines you will see that they took advantage of the shortcomings of Ecuadorian airlines and won their routes taking the profits out of the country. I would like to collaborate where can I say apply or send my CV
Hello, how about then, will jobs open for this airline very soon or not?? And where would I have to leave a folder or for that there is still a lack.
Still missing.
You can notify when they are requesting personnel?
Of course, job advertisements are published on this website when they exist..
I would like them to reopen the extinct “Ecuatoriana de Aviacion” as I have read it was good
The promoters of this new airline are manabitas capitals ??
So is.
Why flights to Cali always stop in Esmeraldas?
Not always, but some airlines do it like this to make it cheaper.
There is a Bi-National agreement between Ecuador and Colombia, that establishes border agreements; part of this agreement, is to promote the integration of the northern zone of Ecuador that includes the northern provinces that border with Colombia. Ibarra airport, began this integration with flights to Popayán but the Ibarreña authorities, they left the city without an airport. That is the reason for using Esmeraldas as the departure airport to Colombia., without it being considered an international route, sino interfronteras
Thanks for your comment Fernando..
It is also because from ESM more weight is removed and more FUEL is carried
What happened?
Why didn't AEROEC crystallize??
If you enter the link that is marked on AEROEC you will see.
There is a market for more airlines in the country? Or will TAME stop operating here soon? (bankruptcy) and they will get a piece of that cake ? It will serve to improve the
Service breaking monopolies of its transnational competitors ?
yes there is market, I'm sure of it, you have to stimulate it.
